In my opinion, I don't think it is ever justifiable to use violence to make a point. There are many examples as to why I think that. For example, the bombing that happened in Boston. Regardless of what statement you wanted to point out, people were killed and injured. They suffered for something that had nothing to do with them. It was a cruel and selfish act. Another example would be the 911 that happened in New York. So many innocent lives were lost all because someone was trying to make a statement. The worst part is that the reason people keep doing this is because it has been proven over and over again how it's the only way to get people's attention. It is really sad, but true. someone needs to die or get injured for someone to finally stand up and say something. It is never justifiable, but I feel that sometimes it is the only way to get attention and we have no one else to blame but ourselves.
